Title: Green Jay 綠色藍鴉
Post by Alvin on Mar 4^th, 2004, 10:36pm

The following bird was seen:
Date 30/1, around 5:15 pm
Location Hong Kong Park, outside the birdcage
Behaviourlooking for food on the ground, a bit like a thrush

Its outlook resembles a Leafbird but the distinct blue crown and nape suggest that it wouldn't be either Blue-winged- , Golden-fronted- or Orange-bellied Leafbird. Please help ??? Thanks;)
